A barrage of misogynistic comments have permeated social media in the days after Donald Trump became the president-elect last week, according to research from the London-based think tank Institute for Strategic Dialogue. “Your body, my choice” — a phrase popularized by white nationalist Nick Fuentes — became the reigning chant among men on the far-right who commented on women’s posts across social media, especially those who expressed sorrow at the election results, the report found.
Gender played a central role in this year’s election as Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign emphasized reproductive rights. Polls prior to the election had found a widening gender gap between the two candidates. Trump ended up outperforming many of those polls. NBC News Exit polling found that he drew 45% of all female voters compared to 53% for Harris — a significant improvement from 2020 when he lost women voters by 15 percentage points to Joe Biden.
